Deathstar Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon]
Walkin' tall, you stand up all alone
With hand and fist, I stand up for my own
The only - thing you're gonna do is fall!
So watch your shit, you think you own it all
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
(Not knowing I) I got my grip on you!
(It's time to show me)
What's up inside you that makes you click for hate!
You'll never find a way to stop me!
What makes you click for hate?
You left me with no choice, I'm coming!
(Watch how I blow through you!)
[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon]
I'll take the blame, that's all you have to give!
So keep your shame, and hide it from the ones you lied to
You wipe your face and start to crawl
And if you get up, I'll be there and you'll…
[Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
(Start falling! I)
Got my grip on you!
(Why don't you show me)
What's up inside you that makes you click for hate?
You'll never find a way to stop me!
What makes you click for hate?
You left me with no choice, I'm coming! (I'm already on you!)
[Refrain: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
You left me with no choice, I'm coming!
(Watch how I blow through you!)
[Bridge: Lajon Witherspoon, John Connolly, & Morgan Rose]
You can't stop me!
I will never fall!
You show me
Nothing at all! (Nothing at all!)
[Chorus 3: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
I got my grip on you!
(Look on the inside!)
Blame is all you have to give!
(You never told me) what's up inside you that makes you click for hate!
You'll never find a way to stop me!
What makes you click for hate?
You left me with no choice, I'm coming!
(Watch how I blow through you!)
[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon]
Look on the inside!
Clueless Lyrics
[Intro: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Scared to look ahead, instead I fold my arms waiting
The train's arriving with the goodies I’m entitled to
All this time, I never felt I got what I deserved
Oh, what a shame. (Why me? Why me?)
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
I'll never take a thing for granted
I’ll never be a hypocrite (What would you know?)
[Post-Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & John Connolly]
Fly, watch your fuckin' sunset
I can’t remember when I ever heard you say, "Thank you for everything you gave I’m so grateful."
(Hang on) to your fallen sunset
[Verse: Lajon Witherspoon, John Connolly, & Morgan Rose]
Don’t you see I’m talking, can’t you wait until I’m done?
Hold on a second, here’s another one you haven’t
You think you’re owed the world, well look at me!
I’m owed it, too! (You're feelin' sorry for yourself once again!)
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose,]
I never take a thing for granted
I’ll never be a hypocrite (can’t stand to hear you!)
Always takin things for granted
You're such a hypocrite!
(What would you know?)
[Post-Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose,]
Fly, watch your fuckin' sunset
I can’t remember when I ever heard you say, "Thank you for everything you gave I’m so grateful."
(Fly)
Watch your fuckin' sunset
[Bridge: Lajon Witherspoon]
Come away with me
I’ll show you the ways to happiness
Then is when you’ll see
The peace that’ll put your mind to rest
Come with me, come with me
Ease your bad memories
You made your choice
You're so fucked up!
Go…
[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon, John Connolly, & Morgan Rose,]
Fly, watch your fuckin' sunset
I can’t remember when I ever heard you say, "Thank you for everything you gave I’m so grateful."
(Hang on) to your fallen sunset
(Fly)
Driven Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose, & John Connolly]
(Stop the man!)
From endin' up with all the chips so he can't
(Promise him an only chance)
To have the freedom that's been taken from me
(You can try to lift your head, no)
You fucked up with me, now live with the truth
Find a reason to lie! (Try)
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose, & John Connolly]
Seems like it hasn't been long
I've given (so much, how could you hide?)
You're sick with all the guilt, you're never forgiven
(You try to wash it away, wash it away)
[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose, & John Connolly]
(Ask again) why all the dreams I had are now left broken!
(Punished for a wounded past)
Afraid to wake and find reality breathin'
(Why has life been taken from me?)
I fucked up and now I live with the truth
With no reason to lie (I)
[Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon, John Connolly, & Morgan Rose]
Feel like it hasn't been long
I'm driven (to keep myself alive!)
You're sick with all the guilt, you're never forgiven
(You'll never wash it away, wash it away)
[Refrain: Morgan Rose]
How can you live with yourself?
[Guitar Solo: John Connolly]
[Chorus 3: Lajon Witherspoon, Morgan Rose, & John Connolly]
Seems like it hasn't been long
I've given (so much, how could you hide?)
Doin' time while you have your freedom believin'
(You shoulda washed it away)
Feel like it hasn't been long
I'm driven (to keep myself alive!)
You're sick with all the guilt, you're never forgiven
(I'm gonna wash you away, wash you away)
[Outro: Morgan Rose]
Stop the man!
Suffer Lyrics
3 ContributorsSuffer LyricsSlip and give a fake
Let you feel a little stronger
My eyes awake
You think I'm rollin' over
You wonder how I feel
Now that you're under
You can't breathe
Can't hold it any longer
I'll, I'll make you suffer
Fear is your only reason
You never thought
That you'd see me in another season
Now I feel the need to make you suffer
Now you see the face
Of the one that took you over
You can't believe
How it ended up, you stumble
I'll never let you have a chance
Now you wonder
You can't breathe
Can't hold it any longer
Fear is your only reason
You never thought
That you'd see me in another season
Now I feel the need to make you suffer
Fear is your only reason
You never thought
That you'd see me in another season
Now I feel the need to make you take it
Think what you want, I've always seen
The shade of your color scheme
I cut through your bullshit talk
I stomp on your fucked up walk
Fear is your only reason
You never thought
That you'd see me in another season
Now I feel the need to make you suffer
Fear is the only reason
You never thought
That you'd see me in another season
Now I feel the need to make you suffer
Beg to Differ Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon & John Connolly]
Slow down! (Slow down!)
I lived a life with no regrets till you came around!
(You're lost, I'm found!)
You had a hold on me, but now it's slipping away!
[Pre-Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
You used me!
Never would've thought you'd try to lie and deceive me!
I'm sure you thought I'd be easy!
(You had a chance, but now, there's nothing that you can call your own!)
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Why does it feel like
I have been the only one who stopped and swam (up the river?)
If everything you said to me was a
I really think (that I beg to differ!)
[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon & John Connolly]
No time, I'm gone!
You had your chance, now let me show you the way around
(Your loss, mine now!)
I let you call it once, you'll never do it again!
[Pre-Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
You fooled me
Once, and then you should have figured now there's just one space
That you can fill, but it's empty
You'll never find a place that you can call your own
Now!
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Why does it feel like
I have been the only one who stopped and swam (up the river?)
If everything you said to me was a
I really think (that I beg to differ!)
[Bridge: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose,]
Listen!
I'll never understand
I'll never understand
I'll never understand
I don't fucking understand why…
[Pre-Chorus 3: Lajon Witherspoon]
You used me!
Never would've thought you'd try to lie and deceive me
I'm sure you thought I'd be easy!
[Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Why does it feel like
I have been the only one who stopped and swam (up the river?)
If everything you said to me was a lie, then…
I really think (that I beg to differ!)
[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon]
I'm gone!
Under Lyrics
4 ContributorsUnder LyricsFallin' down under the cracks
And now, I cannot make a sound
Forgive me if I ask for help
I'm crawling out of the bottom where my every thought
My every thought is consuming
Gimme some excuses, I need to know
If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all?
Time, gimme time, gimme time, gimme
What do you think will help me?
My teeth, chatterin' with every thought
I need some prayers to be answered
I believe I'll be choking on my mind soon
Why won't you help me?
One more time, I expect to get fucked
Gimme some excuses
You don't give a fuck
If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all?
Help me
Help me
If I was under, could I see myself on the floor?
If I should trip inside my mind
Would I be under control of it all, control of it all?
Help me
I'm under
Confessions of Hatred Lyrics
3 ContributorsConfessions of Hatred LyricsImpossible to reason with the thoughts in mind
To direct, to forget about my pastimes
I assure you of one thing
This is something you'll never forget
In time, I'm sure you'll understand
The sound of the crack, the slap of my hand
Was only intended for one thing
The one thing I never had
Palms sweaty, thoughts dry
Hand fed by a broken mind
Hands shakin', don't cry
It'll all be over
And then you'll have the chance to see the hole inside
The painted picture of a wounded mind
I can never escape this
You helped me create this hate
My undying addiction
How were you the last to know?
You brought this on yourself
Now you're the next in line to see all that I've become
Confessions of hatred
Responsible for bringing out my darkest side
I tried to hide what I feel
But it's my time to inflict all the damage
Some indescribable pain
Heart beating, last cry
Anticipating what I have in mind
Lick my lips, an approach to you
With undeniable fucking hate
My undying addiction
How were you the last to know?
You brought this on yourself
Now you're the next in line to see all that I've become
Confessions of hatred
One day I'll become whole again, till then, I'll just remember
I thought you understood being misunderstood
How wrong was I to think you ever would?
One day I'll become whole again, whole again
My undying addiction
I never thought you'd be the last to know
You brought this all on yourself now
You will be the next in line to see all that I've become
Victim till your last breath, all the hope is gone
Confessions of hatred, I'll show you pain
Burn Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Rescue me
From this mistake I'm in, who knows the path I'll land on?
I must be dreamin'
In the end, nothing but solitary moments coming down on me
[Chorus]
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
Wash it away, release me
[Verse 2]
Never free
I don't know what I want but I know I don't want this
A sleep of content, I'm here again
And always intent on believing
[Chorus]
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see what you took from me
From where it all began, the way I used to be
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see what you took from me
From where it all began, the way I used to be
Wash it away, release me
[Bridge]
I can't take this anymore
I lied to myself, remembering the things you
Things you said to me
No answer for help, empty promises were all I heard
Never meant to be
Destroy me, control me
Don't hold me, release me from your hands
Give me back the life you took
[Chorus]
And wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see what you took from me
From where it all began, the way I used to be
Wash away the colors of the shame that you gave to me
So I can see again, so I can live again
I pray the day will come when you will see what you took from me
From where it all began, the way I used to be
[Outro]
I often wonder how it came to this again
I often wonder why it had to end
I often wonder how it came to this again
I often wonder why it had to end
Forgive you, just the same
I often wonder how it came to this again
Never meant to be
I often wonder why it had to end
Forgive you, all the same
I often wonder how it came to this again
Never meant to be
I often wonder why it had to end
Because of what you took from me
The Rim Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
Welcome to a world of eternal shame
Where everything you do is judged by a stupid (fuck-up)
And you'd expecting a reason why
Well get in line, punk
('Cause I've been waiting, too!)
[Chorus 1: Lajon Witherspoon]
How long
Does it take to get an
Answer to a fucking question
I always wanted?
To let you know…
I don't give a shit!
[Verse 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
(Why don't you suck this blah, blah, blah, blah?)
Mouth running like a coke nose
Who's dick did you have to suck
To get the manual for (this world?)
Hey, Einstein, I see you got that look again
And I know you like solving problems!
(Well riddle me this, you dumb fuck!)
How many licks
Does it take
To get to the center
Of this tootsie cock? (Deez nuts!)
I got a number for ya…
(Two, tree, crick)
[Chorus 2: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
How long
Does it take to get an
Answer to a fucking question
I always wanted?
To let you know
I don't give a shit!
(Lick around the rim, bitch!)
How long
How long
Does it take to get an
Answer to a fucking question
I always wanted?
To let you know
I don't give a shit!
(You suck a real good dick!)
[Breakdown: Morgan Rose]
(Two, tree, fuck!)
[Chorus 3: Lajon Witherspoon & Morgan Rose]
How long
Does it take to get an
Answer to a fucking question
I always wanted?
To let you know
I don't give a shit!
(Bet your fucking box stinks!)
How long
Does it take to get an
Answer to a fucking question
I always wanted?
To let you know
I don't give a shit!
[Outro: Lajon Witherspoon]
Suck his dick!
